Impact The 2024 fourth-rounder served in a rotational role in the Packers' secondary during his rookie season, but he was thrust into the starting job at safety alongside Xavier McKinney in 2025. Williams responded by reaching the tackling century mark for the first time in his career, posting at least seven stops in eight of 16 games. He figures to be a key piece in the Packers' defense for the foreseeable future.

Questionable for Saturday night Williams (knee) is questionable to play Saturday versus Baltimore, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports.

Impact Williams was a limited participant at each of the team's practices throughout the week, but his status is still uncertain for Week 17. The safety missed the team's Week 16 loss to the Bears due to a knee injury, and he'll look to make his return to action Saturday against the Ravens.

Still limited in practice Wednesday Williams (knee) was limited in practice Wednesday.

Impact Williams is trying return from the knee injury he suffered Week 15 against Denver. He was unable to play last Saturday versus the Bears and didn't practice at all last week, but he's been labeled as limited both Tuesday and Wednesday this week. It seems Williams has a chance of playing Saturday versus Baltimore, but more clarity in that regard should come when the Packers provide injury designations Thursday.

Estimated as limited Tuesday Williams (knee) was deemed a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Williams sprained the MCL in his knee against Denver in Week 15 and missed this past Saturday's overtime loss against Chicago. He didn't practice at all last week, so his listing as DNP to begin Week 17 prep is a positive sign. Williams intends to take part in individual drills Wednesday, and when asked about his injury Tuesday, he stated, "Taking it slow, but definitely optimistic," per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.

Inactive for Saturday Williams (knee) is listed as inactive for Saturday night's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Williams was unable to log a practice this week, falling short of the participation likely required for the safety to suit up. In his stead, Zayne Anderson will likely start at strong safety. Anderson took over after Williams' early exit in Week 15, logging three tackles (one solo) through 20 defensive snaps.

Questionable for Saturday Williams (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Williams was unable to log a practice this week but is still potentially able to suit up for Saturday's divisional contest. If the Bears win, the NFC North is all but out of reach for the Packers, a truth that no doubt will influence the starting strong safety's clearance to play through injury. If Williams is unable to suit up, Zayne Anderson will likely start at strong safety across from Xavier McKinney for Saturday's game.

Impact Williams has now missed back-to-back practices since being forced out of Sunday's loss to the Broncos early due to a knee injury. He'll have one more opportunity to get back on the practice field in advance of Saturday's divisional matchup against Chicago. Zayne Anderson will be the favorite to start across from Xavier McKinney if Williams can't play Week 16.
